Eaton Specification Sheet - AH320C7W
Eaton Specification Sheet - AH320C7W
IP69K and IP67 protection provide superior washdown durability, dramatically reducing moisture ingress risk and extending service life in harsh environments. Business impact: fewer field failures, lower maintenance costs, and higher line availability for food & beverage and wastewater facilities. Application: ideal for equipment exposed to high-pressure cleaning and chemical exposure, such as process lines and packaging systems. The 20A at 480V rating enables reliable power delivery for motor loads and mixers, supporting higher throughput without over-sizing components. This back-wire wiring method shortens installation time and minimizes termination errors, delivering measurable savings in installation labor and downtime. The nylon housing and nickel-plated brass contacts offer resistance to chemicals and wear, improving long-term reliability in industrial settings. This connector’s grounding and two-pole, three-wire configuration ensure safe, compliant power distribution in control panels and machine kiosks. Compatibility with #12–#10 AWG cables supports common field wiring practices while reducing stock variety. Device grade is Extra Heavy-Duty, designed for continuous operation in demanding environments like food processing, water treatment, and general industrial automation.

FAQs
Yes. The AH320C7W utilizes a back-wire wiring method compatible with #12–#10 AWG conductors, allowing fast, secure terminations without loose-screw complications. This simplifies installation, reduces field labor time, and minimizes termination errors in panel assemblies.
The connector is rated 20A at 480V and features environmental protections IP67 and IP69K. These ratings provide robust sealing against dust and water ingress, making the device suitable for washdown areas and demanding industrial environments.
Best suited for industrial automation, food and beverage processing, and wastewater treatment plants. Its extra-heavy-duty construction, nylon housing, and nickel-plated brass contacts support continuous operation in harsh, chemical-exposed environments and high-pressure washdowns.
The AH320C7W carries cRUus certification, indicating recognized UL compliance for North American markets. Combined with IP67/IP69K ratings, these certifications reinforce safety, regulatory alignment, and reliability for critical industrial wiring in food, beverage, and process facilities.
Maintenance benefits include reduced seal failures, fewer field re-terminations, and longer service intervals due to tough enclosure protection. ROI is realized through lower downtime, faster panel upgrades, and improved process uptime in high-demand production lines.
